New Delhi, December 13
In a bid to keep the Test specialists match-ready, BCCI has decided to allow the likes of Ishant Sharma, Mohammed Shami, Umesh Yadav to turn up for their respective states in the Ranji Trophy semifinals from December 17-21. Bengal will be playing Delhi in Pune in the first semifinal while Karnataka will take on Vidarbha in the second semifinal.
“Shami and Wriddhiman Saha will turn up for Bengal while Ishant Sharma might turn up for Delhi. Umesh Yadav will get to play for Vidarbha against Karnataka which will have KL Rahul in their ranks. Since there aren’t any practice games in South Africa, it is only fair that they play Ranji Trophy,” a senior BCCI official said. — PTI
